32 oz. PowerPlus Deep Clean Hardwood Floor Cleaner

With all due fairness to the manufacturers product claims, it's very powerful and does exactly what they say. It loosens and removes heavy dirt build-up. What the consumer should be aware and keep in mind is that if your floors have dirty layers of wax, finishers, and old coats of polish as mine does The Deep Cleaner will remove them. I couldn't get my hardwood floors totally clean and streak free because I'd been putting floor polish on top of deep rooted dirt. Needless to say when this was "exfoliated" I had flakes all over, but underneath there was the clean, smooth original surface. I now have one small patch of clean floor and a huge DIY project ahead of me to continue and complete the process. I take total responsibility for my lack of knowledge and experience in caring for my floors and Ive learned a valuable lesson. Industrial strength cleansers should be used on otherwise cleaner floors. I would advise fellow customers who've had negative experiences and results with this product to give it another chance and to perhaps consult a professional cleaner. Good Luck!

Expected less smearing of dirt. This is my first use of the product , may be it will improve Over use. Almost feels like I should rinse the floor with clear water.

My wife is the expert on this type of product and she swears by it. I got this 32-ounce container of Bona PowerPlus Deep Clean Hardwood Floor Cleaner thinking I was trying something new. She quickly informed me that she had been using Bona products ever since we redone the upstairs. Which was about 8 years ago when we floored the entire second floor with ¾ inch Natural Ash. Ash is a very light colored wood that shows dirt and stains easily. With so much floor to take care of she had made extensive inquiries into how difficult it was to maintain. She determined from many different sources that Bona cleaner and polish was the way to go. She also told me that had she not been conversed that Bona could handle it, she would have insisted on a hardwood less difficult to maintain. I included a couple of pictures showing small sections of heavy traffic areas to shoe how it looks after 8 years of heavy use. You can judge for yourself why my wife feels so strongly about the merits of this product. I cannot emphases enough how emphatic she is about how it removes stains. She describes in painful detail how it removed coffee stains that I had left for weeks unattended and numerous other similar events. But the most important point she wanted me to emphasize is how Bona’s deep cleaning capability provides critical maintenance. Dirt tends to collect in the joints between boards similar to the way dirt collects in the gout on tile floors. It can become a very serious problem on end joints because dirt can get into the grain and create a permanent stain. Bona PowerPlus’s deep cleaner easily takes care of that problem by just using as directed on the container.

​I have used multiple Bona product over the years like Hardwood Cleaner and Free and Simple. This is just to say that they are my goto cleaners when it comes to hardwood. Now I can add Bona PowerPlus cleaner to the list. I liked the fact that it has surfactants which break dirt and grime and make it easy for you to mop and clean. I used it around couple 3 spots where I had food stains and it made mopping/cleaning really easy. The fact that it's greenguard certified is a big plus as I want to minimize use of chemicals around house. The product does say it's kid and pet safe. I would recommend it.

DISCLOSURE: We received the “Bona 32 oz. PowerPlus Deep Clean Hardwood Floor Cleaner” free from Home Depot’s “Seeds” program. Home Depot only asked that I provide an honest review. I was not compensated in any way. We tested this along with Bona’s PowerPlus Microfiber Deep Clean Pad. We’ve used Bona’s products with success for several years on hardwood, tile, and linoleum. The cleaner is in a 32oz spray bottle (vs the “cartridges” that attach to the spray mop). The spray bottle was much easier to use in tight areas or to focus on a particularly dirty spot. It’s also great for spot cleaning the hardwood without bothering to remove the “stone and tile” cartridge that happens to be in the mop. However for cleaning the entire floor, the cartridges are easier to use. We tried it on the neglected oak hardwood that had suffered built up dirt and water stains from house plants that dripped. It did a great job! (refer to the “before” and “after” pictures). It even cleaned the ground-in dirt where a chair had scuffed an area of the floor over time. We tried it side by side with the regular Bona hardwood cleaner, on a section that needed cleaning, but had generally been cleaned regularly - hard to tell the difference. WHAT’S GOOD: Great at cleaning neglected, dirty hardwood We really like that Bona’s products are safer to use, with low/no odor Spray bottle works really well in tight areas WHAT’S NOT: Really minor but it’s more expensive ($11) than the regular cleaners SUMMARY: Well worth the money for addressing problem areas. Use the regular Bona cleaner most of the time and reserve the PowerPlus cleaner for the problem areas, and the slightly higher cost won’t make much difference as it should last a long time Pair it with Bona’s “PowerPlus” pad for even better results.

It did a great job on my floors. It took away the dullness. I am excited to try the polish next.

This product was recommended by Bona to take a stain out of floor created by Bona cleaner. It did not wirk

I Love Clean and Beautiful floors! This product fits the bill for having both. Is this the cleaner that is included in the spray mop kit?

I have been using the Bona regular hardwood floor cleaner but when I went to reorder noticed this and thought I would try it. It is amazing. Cleans wonderfully and gives a nice shiny glow to my floors.

My white oak floor, finished mat with Bona, had become shiny from grease splatter. The Bona Deep Clean cleaned the floor.
